Why choose LMR‑195 cable for your wireless project?
When you need a reliable radio‑frequency link for antennas, routers or IoT devices, a low‑loss coaxial cable makes all the difference. LMR‑195 cable and LMR195 cable assemblies are engineered for minimal attenuation and high shielding. The cable uses a foam polyethylene dielectric and double shielding—a foil plus tinned‑copper braid—to keep signal loss low. At key Wi‑Fi frequencies around 2.4 GHz its attenuation is much lower than popular RG‑58 cables. Because the cable maintains excellent performance up to 6 GHz and offers >90 dB shielding effectiveness, it is ideal for high‑bandwidth wireless LAN, LTE/4G and UHF systems.
On top of electrical performance, LMR195 cable balances rigidity and flexibility. Its 0.195 inch (≈5 mm) diameter allows a tighter bend radius than stiffer lower‑loss cables, and its polyethylene jacket is UV‑resistant and rated for wide outdoor temperature ranges of about −40 °C to +85 °C. These details help installers run the cable through tight spaces or rooftops without sacrificing durability.
How does LMR‑195 compare to RG58 and RG174 cables?
Many engineers wonder “why choose LMR‑195 cable instead of RG‑58 or RG‑174?” The answer lies in attenuation and shielding. Using genuine LMR‑195 coax, the assemblies on KEESUN deliver significantly better performance than thinner cables like RG‑58 or RG‑174. That means more power reaches your antenna, resulting in greater range for Wi‑Fi routers, long‑range LoRa gateways or GNSS modules. The cable’s foam dielectric and double shielding drastically reduce loss, while >90 dB EMI protection keeps signals clean even in noisy industrial environments.
UltraFlex: when flexibility matters
For devices that require constant movement or frequent re‑routing—such as UAVs, robotics or wearable antennas—the lmr‑195‑uf variant offers extra flexibility. Its stranded core and TPE jacket allow a much tighter bend radius and repeated flexing. This makes it ideal for jumper assemblies in wireless communication systems, VHF/UHF radio communications and WLL/Broadband applications. The same low‑loss performance and EMI shielding found in standard LMR‑195 is maintained, so you don’t trade flexibility for signal quality. In GPS and satellite communication setups or SCADA/cellular repeaters, LMR‑195‑UF’s low signal loss ensures accurate data transmission.
Applications—from Wi‑Fi to IoT
LMR‑195 cables support a wide range of use‑cases. They are frequently used to upgrade routers and access points by connecting high‑gain antennas to reverse‑polarity SMA ports. System integrators choose LMR‑195 to build short‑to‑medium length RF runs for point‑to‑point wireless links, GPS/GNSS receivers, LoRa and IoT gateways, or to connect test equipment such as spectrum analysers and signal generators. Thanks to its rugged jacket and UV resistance, it’s suitable for outdoor antennas on drones, RVs and base stations.
